rganizations of every size and the kind world over
Oare realizing the importance of digital security in
the wake of increased cyber threats and
vulnerability exposing them to cyberattacks from anywhere
and anytime. On the one hand, businesses must adopt
digital transformation, and on the other hand, they must
ensure that their digital entity remains invincible to any and
every internal and external threat. When invincibility is the
prerequisite, instead of making huge investments in
developing everything in-house, it is most prudent to
partner with the best of the best – Walnut Security
Services (WSS).
WSS consists of dedicated, professional experts who
constantly aim to offer unique services and support to its
clients. Nirav Patel, the Director, informs that the cyber
security market in India is forecast to grow more than ₹300
Billion by 2025, owing to the rise in digital adoption, which
has resulted in a surge in online attacks. Increasing
awareness of cyber security has led to increased investment
in cyber security infrastructure across every sector of the
organization and government.
Motivated by the transition of businesses into digital
infrastructure, many factors can give rise to the rapid
increase in investment in cyber security. The global
pandemic has shifted most organizations’ services and
workforce into a digital environment. These have attracted
the attention of most organizations’ boards and
governments to safeguard their digital assets and secure
their online presence.
Digitally Protecting Your Business
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, various governments and
regulatory authorities mandate that public and private
organizations implement new remote work practices. Since
then, the Business Continuity Plan for multiple
organizations has migrated to the digital way. The
widespread use of personal devices or networks for work
purposes connected to the organization’s data from remote
locations created a huge risk for various types of malicious
attacks. Endpoint security measures and robust security
policies and practices have become a rising demand in
every organization.
The need for cyber security has increased enormously since
employees are able to access an organization’s data from a
remote location. Walnut Security Service is in a position to
evaluate and analyze in-depth how a malicious attacker can
infiltrate internal resources. Often assets and targets are
missed out during testing due to the constraint of time and
resources. However, Walnut Security Services allocates
specific security professionals for a particular task.
Therefore, they can gain in-depth knowledge of the in-
scope client’s assets. “Due to the diversity of skillsets
among our in-house experienced security professionals,
they can always tailor the client’s requirement to the
specific needs and goals. It is what makes Walnut Security
Services unique in the market.”
According to Nirav, cyber security attacks and breaches
have increased exponentially since the pandemic hits us
globally. There has been an immense uprise in cyber
security threats over recent years. Cyber security research
firms and security experts also predicted that cyber-attack
cases would likely increase in the coming years in all
sectors, including government, manufacturing, finance,
education, and healthcare.
Every industry sector is vulnerable to cyber-attack in one
form or the others. Walnut Security Services is a cyber-
security consulting firm that has helped various
organizations in different sectors safeguard their digital
assets for such incidents. The employees at Walnut Security
Services are highly experienced and has conducted
hundreds of penetration testing activities, secure code
review and vulnerability assessments for clients ranging
from small to major corporation. Cyber security solutions
provided by experienced cyber security firms like Walnut
Security Services support organizations to monitor, detect,

report, and counter cyber threats to maintain data
confidentiality, integrity, and availability of an organization.
The increase in the number of sophisticated cyber-attacks
such as malware, DDOS, and ransomware attacks in
different industry sectors is a significant factor driving the
implementation of such cyber security solutions.
Securing Your Precious Data
The cybersecurity market is uneven and highly competitive,
comprising several local and worldwide players. Supply
and demand offer a great insight into the structure of any
market. The pandemic has shifted most businesses into
untested online operations where innovation can bring firms
a sustainable, competitive advantage. Under such
circumstances, it is always advisable to consult a security
firm that evolves and is equipped with the latest knowledge
of emerging threats. With the increase in data breaches and
cyber-attacks, the need for cyber security should be highly
emphasized at all organizational levels.
Out of the many services conducted by Walnut Security
Services, here is a list of services offered to clients with
successful outcomes.
Web Application Penetration Testing: Web application
penetration testing involves a practical assessment to gather
information about the target application, identifying
vulnerabilities or flaws in them, researching for exploits
that will thrive against those flaws or vulnerabilities, and
compromise the web application. It helps to improve the
security of your Web Application. Web Application
Penetration Testing is advisable for any organization where
revenue is dependent on online assets. Also, according to
the government, sectors like Banking, FinTech, etc. have
mandatory requirement for penetration testing.
Mobile application penetration testing: Mobile
application penetration testing is a form of security testing
organizations use to evaluate security inside a mobile
environment. The application developers need at least a
basic knowledge and skill in reverse engineering and
penetration testing of an application to find any types of
security flaws in it. By conducting mobile penetration
testing, the organization can discover vulnerabilities in the
mobile application, vectors, loopholes, and bottlenecks
before launching the application to the public user. There
are two types of mobile application penetration testing
based on the platform used: Android application penetration
testing and iOS Application penetration testing.
Secure source code review: A secure code review is a
specified task performed by a security professional to
identify and discover security-related weaknesses and flaws
within the application source code involving manual or
automated review. It is used as a technique to substantiate if
proper security controls are employed throughout the
system’s code being under review and identify if there are
any logical flaws in the code, exclusively in the architecture
and design of the application. There are mainly two
methods of secure code review: manual and automated.
Containerization or container technology is the primary
technology that has enhanced the adoption of new
methodologies to develop, deploy and run applications in
the cloud. The vulnerabilities may arise in containers due to
some misconfiguration.
Attack and defence training: The current cyber security
awareness programs conducted by different organization
gives information only about what warning signs
employees should look out for in the event of cyber-attacks.
It is an important subject, yet they often fail to miss out on
the main reasons. First, employees in an organization
should be educated on why and how these cyber-attacks are
happening. They should be aware of what the attackers plan
to do and how they might carry it out. The training should
be done in such a way that employees understand the mind
of the adversary. Educating and empowering the clients and
customers in such a way is a vital training method for
Walnut Security Services.
Making You Invincible
With remote work from home becoming a new norm for
normal business operations amid the pandemic, cyber-
attacks against remote access IT systems have constantly
risen over the past year. Some cybercriminals are well
organized, and just connecting to the Internet unwraps the
probability of cybercriminals targeting an organization.
According to the Minister of State for Electronics and
Information and Technology, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, India
witnessed 13.91 Lakh cyber security incidents in 2022. The
most recent and alarming aspect of cybersecurity that
causes considerable problems for organizations is a type of
malware called ransomware. Malicious actors have become
more sophisticated, better equipped, and daring in their
actions, creating cyber security an ever-growing concern in
all businesses now more than ever. However, for many
organizations, the outbreak of COVID-19 has changed the
paradigm further. The need for cyber security has grown
rapidly over the past few months.
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly shifted our way
of life into a more digital environment. The COVID-19
pandemic has shaped new challenges for any business as
they adapt to an operating model in which remote working
and working from home have become the new way of office
operation. Every organization’s business has a massive
digital transformation, making cybersecurity a high concern
for all. The legal and economic implications could be
substantial if cybersecurity risks are ignored. But on a
Security Operation Centre (SOC) management: A
centralized facility for security professionals whose sole
responsibilities are to analyze, monitor, and detect cyber
threats in an organization is known as a Security Operation
Centre (SOC). Managing and employing the required talent
can be tedious for an organization. Therefore, services
offered by security consulting firms like Walnut Security
Services can provide organizations with a response much
faster with a minimal cost in the event of cyber-attacks.
Cloud platform penetration testing: Cloud application
penetration testing has become very crucial as most of the
businesses are moving towards cloud to store sensitive data
or hosting their complex applications on cloud to avoid
high cost for on-premise servers. These application are
highly vulnerable if misconfigured.
Different penetration services offered by Walnut Security
services for cloud penetration testing are
Ÿ Google Cloud platform penetration testing.
Ÿ Amazon web services penetration testing.
Ÿ Microsoft Azure penetration testing.
API penetration testing: API, also known as Application
Programming Interface penetration testing, where security
analyst will evaluate API for potential vulnerabilities and
exploit them in a secure environment. While conducting
API penetration testing, professional security tests the API
function and methods on how they could be manipulated
and how a malicious user could evade the security features.
Various known and unknown vulnerabilities are also
evaluated on how they can be exploited in real-time.
Red Team Engagement: Red Team cybersecurity
operations are more advanced penetration tests carried out
by security professionals who are well-versed in the field.
The main goal of the test is to attain the level of risks and
vulnerabilities an organization is exposed to in terms of
physical assets, people, and the technology currently in use.
Different methods, techniques, and strategies are
implemented based on the target.
Network penetration testing: Network penetration testing
is identifying and discovering network vulnerabilities in an
organization’s system to gain access and a foothold on the
network. It can further be escalated to access sensitive data
within the organization’s network. Network penetration
testing helps in identifying network security flaws before an
attacker does.
Container secure review: Container security uses tools,
processes, and policies to secure the container's integrity.
business level, while economizing measures will be
required in many areas, prudent companies may increase
their IT spending in the coming months and years. The
result of any cyber-attack is a huge cost to any organization.
Improved cyber security, better-integrated communications,
automation, and enhanced IT management are areas in
which organizations should consider making additional
investments.
Not understanding the common cyber security threats can
often leave you most vulnerable. It has happened many
times in the past and will also continue to occur in the
future. Implementing a new organization’s protocol is
mandatory to keep businesses secure and operating
smoothly. These protocols and policies must be
comprehensive and reliable. In any cyber-attacks or
unprecedented crises, these policies should be firm enough
to be relied on.
The Most Trusted Cybersecurity Partner
Often employees are connected to email and the
organization server via their devices, allowing quick access
to the organization’s data. Implementing a secure password
for authentication based on the employees’ role in the
organization is necessary. Whether intentional or
unintentional, internal threats or incidents can cause major
chaos to any organization. These threats are usually due to
the lack of awareness among the employees. Educating and
training internal employees by skilled professionals,
showing real-world scenarios, can help prevent this kind of
adversary to a great extent. Malicious attackers have
exploited the security gap created by the shift from secure,
centralized office IT systems to the vast collection of
personal devices as people have worked from home.
A cybersecurity governance and risk management program
should be established which is appropriate for the
organization's size. It will help businesses maintain their
assets' confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Cybersecurity risk must be considered a significant business
risk by an appropriate member of the senior executives,
such as the board members and directors. It should be
considered at the same level of importance with suitable
criteria as compliance, financial, operational, and
reputational risk, and the results and outcome should be
monitored and managed. Some frameworks can be used to
consider risk assessment and related best practices, such as
NIST, PCI-DSS, etc.
Shielding Your Vital Assets
Due to the rapid digital transformation, new threats emerge,
and threat landscapes continue to increase. Each
organization needs to ensure that they are equipped to deal
with such threats while maintaining the continuity of
business flow. As much as technical knowledge helps, it is
not sufficient to safeguard the organization’s assets. There is
an overabundance of roles to be filled and technical skills to
be learned daily as new threats emerge at a high rate.
Maintaining a secure business is critical for all
organizations.
Walnut Security Services comprises different levels of
professionals ranging from cyber security professionals,
and application developers, to the marketing teams, each
having a separate department for various specific tasks
allocated to them. The cyber security teams handle different
tasks, from offensive security like penetration testing,
vulnerability assessment, secure source code review, etc., to
even the blue team responsibilities like risk management,
security operation management, and so on.
The Security team in an organization consists of various
levels depending on the organization's operating structure
and environment. Digital transformation, Artificial
Intelligence, cloud computing, and a sophisticated threat
landscape are pushing everyone to re-evaluate the functions
of each role on the security teams, from Chief Information
Security Officers (CISOs) to the last member in the
department. Cyber security is a vast domain, so the

necessary roles vary from team to team depending on the
skillsets they need and their respective responsibilities.
Cybersecurity requires engagement from all levels of
leadership. Business knowledge and technical knowledge
increase as you move up the ladder.
A Solid Expertise in Advanced Technologies
A team works together to achieve a common goal or
purpose. In the world of corporate business, teams may be
gathered to perform specific tasks such as developing an
application, assessing clients’ assets for vulnerabilities,
developing a marketing plan or finding ways to improve
clients’ security.
Several factors decide a team from good to average and
average to a bad team. This decision involves people from
top to bottom. A strong team is the foundation of a high-
performing business, and a good team ethic can be held
largely accountable for the success and smooth running of
the organization. “Some of the key points that I have
observed while working at Walnut Security Services can be
broadly classified into five points.”
Good communication.
Diversity.
Unity.
Good leadership.
Accountability as a Team.
With the rapid technological advancement, staying on top
of the league is often impossible as technology landscapes
constantly change rapidly. Adapting and evolving to the
changes technology brings to operate smoothly business
continuity is important. For businesses to be successful and
mature, a roadmap is necessary for delivering competitive
services and a strategic plan for continuous growth.
Safeguarding Your Present and Future
Roadmaps are well-documented diagrams that represent
different business processes and are built collectively to
achieve an organization’s strategic goals. Having a proper
roadmap enables all the employees within an organization
to clearly understand each business activity and the
decisions needed.
Goals are required to accomplish what is on the roadmap.
There are different types of goals a business plans to
achieve to reach its destination. Based on the amount of
time required to complete it can be classified into
Short-Term Goal: Short-term goals are typically goals or
targets an organization wants to accomplish over time. It
can be a few days to a couple of weeks. Short-term goals
help achieve long-term goals; hence they should be
evaluated periodically and changes should be made when it
is not working as intended. Some of the short-term goals for
our organization include:
Ÿ Market share.
Ÿ Quality Management.
Ÿ Client Service.
Long-Term Goal: An organization's long-term goal is an
accomplishment achieved over time – potentially years. A
series of short-term goals made up a long-term goal.
Depending upon the type of business and size of the
organization, long-term goals can vary. “Below is the goal
for our organization:”
Ÿ Expansion of market.
Ÿ Brand recognition.
Ÿ Increased sales.
Ÿ Securing more organizations.
Walnut Security Services comprises
different levels of professionals
ranging from cyber security
professionals, applica on developers,
to the marke ng teams, each having
their separate department for various
specific tasks allocated to them.

testing process and methodology, and No visibility towards
server and network vulnerability management.
Sanket reveals, “We did the technical assessment by
Scanning the IT infrastructure for vulnerabilities and
reported them periodically. We then identified dead hosts or
decommissioned assets and kept the scanning list up to
date.” A follow-up was done with systems and patching
teams for prompt remediation of outstanding
vulnerabilities. A detailed vulnerability assessment on all
assets using RidgeBot (A robotic vulnerability scanner
and Pentest tool) is also performed, along with a network
architecture and config review of the internal network.
“The business impact was profound,” says Sanket. It
included meeting customer compliance and improving
customer satisfaction. All assessment findings were
remediated with respective owners. “We highlighted areas
in the client’s security architecture which were vulnerable
to potential cyberattacks and deployed our solutions to
make the system failproof and invincible,” adds Sanket.

We Secure Your Data-Currency
According to Sanket, information is the most valuable
currency in today’s world, and it is only natural that any
enterprise with information unique and crucial to its
functioning would want to have it secured inside an
impregnable fortress of safety. Cyber Security and Cyber
Security products, hence, become of paramount importance
for any business. “We understand Cyber Security products
better. We understand business data and the technologies
that manage, store and move that information for you and
your clients,” he claims.
And along with it, the threats to your data and business
systems can cost thousands, even millions, of dollars.
Though each company has the primary responsibility of its
Cyber security exposure – the extent of extending access,
firewall workarounds for vendors, and external and internal
reaches, the frantic pace at which information ecosystems
are evolving can be a challenge for even the leaders in the
business domains. This is where CiELO Tech is the most
valuable partner every enterprise can have.
We Build an End-to-End Security
Elaborating on the plethora of solutions they provide,
Sanket says they include
Enterprise Security Solutions: “We bring an integrated
facilities management service, bring you enterprise security
solutions targeted to amalgamate different aspects of your
business. Hence, done by processing all info from the areas
related to the databases, delivering real-time operating
information to managers, and placing mission-critical data
open to the organization. Our network enterprise solutions
are viable for any type of consumer, providing them with
real-time IT management. We provide cloud application
monitoring boosting existing successful suite products.”
Hence arranging application performance management and
real-time network activity for the IT industry.
Advanced Threat Protection: Increasingly, organisations
are facing stealthy targeted attacks in their networks. Often
custom designed to penetrate standard defences, these
attacks are poised to monetise intellectual property and
customer information or to encrypt essential data for
ransom.
Sanket adds, “Our Advanced Threat Protection solution
delivers a blend of cross-generational threat defence
techniques that protect against targeted attacks, advanced
threats, and ransomware.” Advanced Threat Protection
gives you the power to detect, analyse, and respond to
today’s stealthy ransomware, its variants, including
WannaCry, and targeted attacks in real-time.
Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR): EDR allows
you to ask questions about what has happened in the past
and what is happening now on your endpoints. Hunt threats
to detect active adversaries or leverage for IT operations to
maintain IT security hygiene. When an issue is found
remotely, respond with precision. By starting with the
strongest protection, Intercept X stops breaches before they
start. It cuts down the number of items to investigate and
saves you time.
Security Information and Event Management (SIEM):
SIEM comprises five distinct frameworks that can be
leveraged independently to meet a wide range of security
use cases, including compliance, application security,
incident management, advanced threat detection, real-time
monitoring and more.
Network Security: Businesses are pressured to protect
network assets from increasingly sophisticated threats
whilst incorporating infrastructure changes like
virtualization and ever-higher bandwidth networks. The
various network security services include
Ÿ Next-generation firewalls.
Ÿ Network security firewalls.
Ÿ Advanced threat prevention.
Ÿ Network access control.
At CiELO Technologies,
we really care about IT,
so ware, and cybersecurity.
It’s not just our job–
it’s our passion.
22 | June, 2023
Ÿ Endpoint security.
Ÿ Denial of service.
Content Security: Businesses need to let employees work
online without risking data. At the same time, cybercrime
tactics grow more advanced every day. Standalone solutions
such as anti-virus simply can’t keep up. This is when you
need
Ÿ Web application security.
Ÿ Web application firewall.
Ÿ Email security.
Ÿ Hosted security.
Ÿ Hybrid security.
Data Security: Data is the lifeblood of business. The
potential damage to companies, both financially and
reputation-wise, from data loss is well documented.
Whether protecting sensitive data from theft or accidental
loss, data protection is at the top of the IT team’s priority
list: Data encryption, DLP, Data access, and Data
Classification.
Security Intelligence: The modern network will be
breached – but you need to know when you are under attack
and be able to remediate that, a thankless task given the
ever-increasing number of logs, devices and users on your
network. Active Security Intelligence is integral to your
strategy to detect targeted attacks early and reduce their
business impact. CiELO Tech helps you with
Ÿ Responding to increased volume.
Ÿ Responding to increased risk.
Ÿ Dealing with the real threats.
Sanket furthers that their cyber security assessment solution
focuses on discovering threats, vulnerabilities and gaps in
IT policy and process, IT infrastructure architecture,
networks, operating systems, applications and database that
may lead to severe risk in enterprise IT. “Our cybersecurity
assessment experts have built the capability to conduct most
of the reviews with the right mix of cost-effective onshore
and off-shore models,” he says.
Sharing one more case study, Sanket says the client was one
of the leading banks in India with more than 3000
employees. The bank has a presence in major cities in India.
The business challenges were multiple:
•Significant increase in the number of external hacking
attempts; •Compliance requirement to protect customers’
medical data; •High visibility on any security breach
causing compromise of confidential data; and •No visibility
towards potential risk to the environment from external
attacks.
So was CiELO Tech’s Technical Assessment: • A custom
security assessment methodology divided into several
phases; • Automated and manual testing using licensed
tools; • Vulnerability verification to remove false positives;
• Advanced automated security testing techniques with
necessary manual verification and risk analysis of the
findings; and • Remediation recommendation reporting and
mitigation support.
Sanket divulges that their solutions had a profoundly
positive business impact:
• A 150-page comprehensive security assessment report was
delivered to be used by all types of audiences (Senior
Leadership, Security Group, Auditors, Remediation team
etc.);
• Several critical and high-risk vulnerabilities were
discovered in the organization’s public-facing domains;
• A complete and detailed list of low, medium and high-risk
vulnerabilities was delivered to the client's internal security
team before disengagement, with a few critical
vulnerabilities requiring immediate attention.
• CiELO Tech developed advanced automated security
scanning scripts to meet the aggressive timelines and parse
results intelligently, successfully exploited and
compromised vulnerable systems to access customer-
sensitive business data;
• Risk-driven remediation plan assisted the organisation in
using available resources effectively for mitigating
identified gaps
• Established phased approach planned to be utilized by the
client for periodic vulnerability assessment and penetration
testing.

Ÿ Compliance with Regulations: Organizations must
adhere to Many industries' specific cybersecurity
regulations and standards. Cybersecurity training
ensures employees understand and comply with these
requirements, helping organizations avoid penalties,
legal consequences, and reputational damage.
Countering Challenges with Innovation and Develop-
ment
Mohit recalls that when they began, the first challenge was
identifying the need for cybersecurity training, as organiza-
tions were unaware of the prevailing threats. He says, “We
showed them through demonstrations and real-life exam-
ples of the heavy damage caused by the cyber-attacks.”
Once convinced, the companies agreed on the training and

Offering valuable advice to budding professionals in the
cybersecurity industry, Mohit says that enterprise security is
an important aspect of the business world. The concerns of
cyberattacks and unauthorized access by hackers have
created a huge need for cybersecurity professionals
worldwide.
NullcyberX prepares the students to be alert and aware of
web technologies and study the deceptive links shared
through messages and emails. The cybersecurity segment is
ever-changing as the threats of viruses grow in form and
nature. “We ask the business entrepreneurs to prepare and
gear up for the evolving challenges and earn the pleasure
of developing effective solutions,” says Mohit.
Securing the Progress
Every business organization strives to develop best
practices in its operations by enhancing quality, accelerating
the services and achieving higher levels of customer
satisfaction. In this highly competitive scenario, the
possibility of cyberattacks or hacking can disrupt the
business momentum to a large extent.
Hence it is of utmost importance for modern business
entrepreneurs and organizations to develop a secure
enterprise security ecosystem that will be reviewed, updated

Yet, in this digital frontier, the risks are as real as the
opportunities. The digital realm is not only a conduit for
streamlined operations and global connectivity but also a
breeding ground for cyber threats. A single cybersecurity
breach can have catastrophic consequences, shattering the
trust of customers, compromising sensitive data, and
jeopardizing the very existence of businesses.
A multitude of companies now conduct their core
operations through the internet. Whether it's the healthcare
sector safeguarding patient data, the financial industry
protecting financial transactions, or any business reliant on
digital platforms, data security has become an indispensable
entity. With the stakes higher than ever, the cybersecurity
landscape in India is faced with a dual challenge:
addressing new, sophisticated threats while identifying
novel opportunities to bolster digital defenses.
Thus emerges the trends shaping the present and the future

YIELD
I n t e r a c t i v e
The constant 360-degree connectivity–as offered by
the advancing waves of digitalization–is a boon and
a bane. In the digital bandwidth, every business
remains vulnerable to cyber threats on the other end of the
spectrum. Previously hidden within the dark web's
underbelly, that spectrum has been surfacing with greater
and stronger attacks.
Every time a business entity's defences are weakened due to
dealing with the rapidly evolving online world. That
vulnerability becomes an opportunity for unscrupulous
elements to exploit. This thin line is the difference between
a company's success and failure.
In these scenarios, not having to face such situations means
being protected by an invincible defender of the calibre and
might of Yield Interactive, whose perfectly expert and
professionally adept team of stalwarts––led by an
exemplary leader, and Founder, AMiT Thakrar––remains
completely focused on your business's impregnable
cybersecurity firewall, allowing you to focus on your
business's growth, development, and success, indeed.
Yield Interactive is New Delhi – India, based full-service
agency. Yield is focused on tailored business consulting
independent of technology and platform. With the
emergence of the digital era, data, application, and
infrastructure security has been a prime focus for all tech-
enabled initiatives. Yield Interactive has a dedicated set-up
of cybersecurity team who works closely with clients and
helps them create a secure ecosystem. AMiT proclaims,
"We came into existence with…
A Focused Approach Towards Client's Success”
AMiT has worn various hats in his professional career.
Being an engineer, he was always inquisitive about the
business. And in his conquest, he came into the digital
world, and since then, he has been mainly into client
interactions, relationship development, business consulting,
and sales.
AMiT started Yield Interactive in 2012, intending to focus
on building successful businesses. Since then, he has helped
numerous clients turn their ideas into sustainable businesses
and built their own startups in various verticals.
Sharing his inspiration behind venturing into Cyber
Security niche, AMiT says that Data, Info, Communication,
Infrastructure, and Cyber security let your businesses
operate with complete confidence and grow exponentially.
Companies are very vulnerable without proper security
measures, and it just takes a few lines of code to bring the
business down. Thus Yield Interactive has added this
important service vertical to educate, implement and
maintain digital business security. "We educate each client
and help them follow proper security practices," he insists.
Stating USP's highlighting brand Yield Interactive as a
leading name in Cyber Security Industry, AMiT says,
"What stands us apart in the Cyber Security Industry is
Completely Focused on Your Business' Cybersecurity and Success
32 | June, 2023
Our Tailored Methodology"
According to him, since they are a full-service agency, they
not only have Cyber Security as their service but also
provide development services. "In case a client engages us
for development, we educate the client and help them with
the minimum required security measures in place within the
application and at the infrastructure level. Depending upon
the business domain and the critical nature of the
application, we suggest what's best suitable for the
business. So we do not go by one size fits all approach, and
that's our core USP.”
He says that initially, in this field, the challenges were to
educate and convince clients about the importance of Cyber
Security. For the first time, many venturing into the digital
domain needed to be made aware of how lethal it can be for
businesses. Since these additional efforts weren't reflected
in the bottom line directly, startups tend to sidestep the
security aspects and put it on low priority.
And now, challenges are the ongoing nature of new threats.
"Like you manage and upgrade your infra, applications, and
processes, you have to update your security patches
continuously." Not all businesses factor in this additional
yet very important expense in their budgeting.
We Make You Invulnerable
Being an experienced leader, AMiT shares his opinion on
how Cyber Security is crucial today and what
advancements can be expected in the future. He explains
that digital businesses are more vulnerable, especially
because they can be accessed from anywhere and anytime.
Moreover, data being a nonphysical asset, it's easy to access
and manipulate. In the early days, businesses had to think of

a basic level of security, but most of the development and
infrastructure framework is already considering an initial
level of security practices. Currently, you see more
camouflaged attacks, which will become more difficult to
trace, eradicate and prevent. Thus being extra attentive,
cautious, and continuously monitoring your business assets
will become a norm.
In his advice to the aspirants willing to venture into the field
of Cyber Security services, AMiT says that following basics
without taking anything for granted is the only way to
excel. "When you code, evaluate or set up digital assets,
always think of the worst and always have a failsafe
mechanism in place. The first objective should be to prevent

all kinds of attacks, followed by having options ready to
keep the business running 24x7 even in the attack mode.
Learn to read, learn, adapt and evolve.”
On envisioning brand Yield Interactive's position and future
goals, AMiT reveals that they would like their clients to
remember Yield Interactive as a one-stop partner for all
kinds of digital needs. "We want our clients to focus on
their core business while we can take care of the software,
infra, cybersecurity, and maintenance," he concludes.

  • 5. In the ever-evolving landscape of the digital age, where information is a valuable asset and data breaches are an increasing concern, the role of cybersecurity has never been more critical. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, the potential for cyber threats and attacks grows in tandem. India, a burgeoning hub for technology and digital innovation, is at the forefront of this digital revolution. However, with great innovation comes great responsibility, especially when it comes to safeguarding sensitive information and digital assets. The year 2023 marks a pivotal moment in the realm of cybersecurity. With the global cyber threat landscape growing in complexity and sophistication, the need for robust, reliable, and innovative cybersecurity solutions has never been more pronounced. According to cybersecurity ventures, by 2025, the world will witness a staggering 350% increase in the number of cybersecurity jobs globally, reaching a total of three-point-five million. India, in line with this trend, is estimated to have over three-point-five lakh cybersecurity jobs available across both the private and public sectors. The significance of this growth cannot be understated, as it reflects the critical importance of cybersecurity in today's digital age. India, with its rapid digitization and technologi- cal advancements, is not immune to the challenges posed by cyber threats. The country has witnessed a sharp rise in cybercrimes over the years, with reported cases surging from 2,08,456 in 2018 to a staggering 14,02,809 in 2021. The first two months of 2022 alone accounted for 2,12,485 cases, surpassing the entire year of 2018. This alarming increase, amounting to almost a 575% rise, underscores the urgent need for cutting-edge cybersecurity measures. With the advent of 5G networks and the promise of smart cities, the cybersecurity landscape in India is poised for even greater challenges and opportunities. As digital transformation continues to reshape industries and societies, the need for robust cybersecurity solutions is paramount. It is in this dynamic and ever-evolving landscape that India's leading cyber security companies have emerged as key players. These companies, armed with advanced technologies, innovative strategies, and a commitment to safeguarding digital infrastructure, are at the forefront of the battle against cyber threats. They have proven their mettle in defending against cyber-attacks, ensuring data protection, and enabling secure digital experiences for individuals and organizations alike. In this exclusive edition, we delve into the stories of these cybersecurity stalwarts, exploring their evolution, techno- logical prowess, and their vision for the future. We bring you a comprehensive overview of India's Leading Cyber Security Companies to Watch, highlighting their pivotal role in securing the nation's digital future and beyond.

  • 12. rganizations of every size and the kind world over Oare realizing the importance of digital security in the wake of increased cyber threats and vulnerability exposing them to cyberattacks from anywhere and anytime. On the one hand, businesses must adopt digital transformation, and on the other hand, they must ensure that their digital entity remains invincible to any and every internal and external threat. When invincibility is the prerequisite, instead of making huge investments in developing everything in-house, it is most prudent to partner with the best of the best – Walnut Security Services (WSS). WSS consists of dedicated, professional experts who constantly aim to offer unique services and support to its clients. Nirav Patel, the Director, informs that the cyber security market in India is forecast to grow more than ₹300 Billion by 2025, owing to the rise in digital adoption, which has resulted in a surge in online attacks. Increasing awareness of cyber security has led to increased investment in cyber security infrastructure across every sector of the organization and government. Motivated by the transition of businesses into digital infrastructure, many factors can give rise to the rapid increase in investment in cyber security. The global pandemic has shifted most organizations’ services and workforce into a digital environment. These have attracted the attention of most organizations’ boards and governments to safeguard their digital assets and secure their online presence. Digitally Protecting Your Business Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, various governments and regulatory authorities mandate that public and private organizations implement new remote work practices. Since then, the Business Continuity Plan for multiple organizations has migrated to the digital way. The widespread use of personal devices or networks for work purposes connected to the organization’s data from remote locations created a huge risk for various types of malicious attacks. Endpoint security measures and robust security policies and practices have become a rising demand in every organization. The need for cyber security has increased enormously since employees are able to access an organization’s data from a remote location. Walnut Security Service is in a position to evaluate and analyze in-depth how a malicious attacker can infiltrate internal resources. Often assets and targets are missed out during testing due to the constraint of time and resources. However, Walnut Security Services allocates specific security professionals for a particular task. Therefore, they can gain in-depth knowledge of the in- scope client’s assets. “Due to the diversity of skillsets among our in-house experienced security professionals, they can always tailor the client’s requirement to the specific needs and goals. It is what makes Walnut Security Services unique in the market.” According to Nirav, cyber security attacks and breaches have increased exponentially since the pandemic hits us globally. There has been an immense uprise in cyber security threats over recent years. Cyber security research firms and security experts also predicted that cyber-attack cases would likely increase in the coming years in all sectors, including government, manufacturing, finance, education, and healthcare. Every industry sector is vulnerable to cyber-attack in one form or the others.

The increase in the number of sophisticated cyber-attacks such as malware, DDOS, and ransomware attacks in different industry sectors is a significant factor driving the implementation of such cyber security solutions. Securing Your Precious Data The cybersecurity market is uneven and highly competitive, comprising several local and worldwide players. Supply and demand offer a great insight into the structure of any market. The pandemic has shifted most businesses into untested online operations where innovation can bring firms a sustainable, competitive advantage. Under such circumstances, it is always advisable to consult a security firm that evolves and is equipped with the latest knowledge of emerging threats. With the increase in data breaches and cyber-attacks, the need for cyber security should be highly emphasized at all organizational levels. Out of the many services conducted by Walnut Security Services, here is a list of services offered to clients with successful outcomes. Web Application Penetration Testing: Web application penetration testing involves a practical assessment to gather information about the target application, identifying vulnerabilities or flaws in them, researching for exploits that will thrive against those flaws or vulnerabilities, and compromise the web application. It helps to improve the security of your Web Application. Web Application Penetration Testing is advisable for any organization where revenue is dependent on online assets. Also, according to the government, sectors like Banking, FinTech, etc. have mandatory requirement for penetration testing. Mobile application penetration testing: Mobile application penetration testing is a form of security testing organizations use to evaluate security inside a mobile environment. The application developers need at least a basic knowledge and skill in reverse engineering and penetration testing of an application to find any types of security flaws in it. By conducting mobile penetration testing, the organization can discover vulnerabilities in the mobile application, vectors, loopholes, and bottlenecks before launching the application to the public user. There are two types of mobile application penetration testing based on the platform used: Android application penetration testing and iOS Application penetration testing. Secure source code review: A secure code review is a specified task performed by a security professional to identify and discover security-related weaknesses and flaws within the application source code involving manual or automated review. It is used as a technique to substantiate if proper security controls are employed throughout the system’s code being under review and identify if there are any logical flaws in the code, exclusively in the architecture and design of the application. There are mainly two methods of secure code review: manual and automated.
  • 14. Containerization or container technology is the primary technology that has enhanced the adoption of new methodologies to develop, deploy and run applications in the cloud. The vulnerabilities may arise in containers due to some misconfiguration. Attack and defence training: The current cyber security awareness programs conducted by different organization gives information only about what warning signs employees should look out for in the event of cyber-attacks. It is an important subject, yet they often fail to miss out on the main reasons. First, employees in an organization should be educated on why and how these cyber-attacks are happening. They should be aware of what the attackers plan to do and how they might carry it out. The training should be done in such a way that employees understand the mind of the adversary. Educating and empowering the clients and customers in such a way is a vital training method for Walnut Security Services. Making You Invincible With remote work from home becoming a new norm for normal business operations amid the pandemic, cyber- attacks against remote access IT systems have constantly risen over the past year. Some cybercriminals are well organized, and just connecting to the Internet unwraps the probability of cybercriminals targeting an organization. According to the Minister of State for Electronics and Information and Technology, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, India witnessed 13.91 Lakh cyber security incidents in 2022. The most recent and alarming aspect of cybersecurity that causes considerable problems for organizations is a type of malware called ransomware. Malicious actors have become more sophisticated, better equipped, and daring in their actions, creating cyber security an ever-growing concern in all businesses now more than ever. However, for many organizations, the outbreak of COVID-19 has changed the paradigm further. The need for cyber security has grown rapidly over the past few months. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly shifted our way of life into a more digital environment. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaped new challenges for any business as they adapt to an operating model in which remote working and working from home have become the new way of office operation. Every organization’s business has a massive digital transformation, making cybersecurity a high concern for all. The legal and economic implications could be substantial if cybersecurity risks are ignored. But on a Security Operation Centre (SOC) management: A centralized facility for security professionals whose sole responsibilities are to analyze, monitor, and detect cyber threats in an organization is known as a Security Operation Centre (SOC). Managing and employing the required talent can be tedious for an organization. Therefore, services offered by security consulting firms like Walnut Security Services can provide organizations with a response much faster with a minimal cost in the event of cyber-attacks. Cloud platform penetration testing: Cloud application penetration testing has become very crucial as most of the businesses are moving towards cloud to store sensitive data or hosting their complex applications on cloud to avoid high cost for on-premise servers. These application are highly vulnerable if misconfigured. Different penetration services offered by Walnut Security services for cloud penetration testing are Ÿ Google Cloud platform penetration testing. Ÿ Amazon web services penetration testing. Ÿ Microsoft Azure penetration testing. API penetration testing: API, also known as Application Programming Interface penetration testing, where security analyst will evaluate API for potential vulnerabilities and exploit them in a secure environment. While conducting API penetration testing, professional security tests the API function and methods on how they could be manipulated and how a malicious user could evade the security features. Various known and unknown vulnerabilities are also evaluated on how they can be exploited in real-time. Red Team Engagement: Red Team cybersecurity operations are more advanced penetration tests carried out by security professionals who are well-versed in the field. The main goal of the test is to attain the level of risks and vulnerabilities an organization is exposed to in terms of physical assets, people, and the technology currently in use. Different methods, techniques, and strategies are implemented based on the target. Network penetration testing: Network penetration testing is identifying and discovering network vulnerabilities in an organization’s system to gain access and a foothold on the network. It can further be escalated to access sensitive data within the organization’s network. Network penetration testing helps in identifying network security flaws before an attacker does. Container secure review: Container security uses tools, processes, and policies to secure the container's integrity.

The result of any cyber-attack is a huge cost to any organization. Improved cyber security, better-integrated communications, automation, and enhanced IT management are areas in which organizations should consider making additional investments. Not understanding the common cyber security threats can often leave you most vulnerable. It has happened many times in the past and will also continue to occur in the future. Implementing a new organization’s protocol is mandatory to keep businesses secure and operating smoothly. These protocols and policies must be comprehensive and reliable. In any cyber-attacks or unprecedented crises, these policies should be firm enough to be relied on. The Most Trusted Cybersecurity Partner Often employees are connected to email and the organization server via their devices, allowing quick access to the organization’s data. Implementing a secure password for authentication based on the employees’ role in the organization is necessary. Whether intentional or unintentional, internal threats or incidents can cause major chaos to any organization. These threats are usually due to the lack of awareness among the employees. Educating and training internal employees by skilled professionals, showing real-world scenarios, can help prevent this kind of adversary to a great extent. Malicious attackers have exploited the security gap created by the shift from secure, centralized office IT systems to the vast collection of personal devices as people have worked from home. A cybersecurity governance and risk management program should be established which is appropriate for the organization's size. It will help businesses maintain their assets' confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Cybersecurity risk must be considered a significant business risk by an appropriate member of the senior executives, such as the board members and directors. It should be considered at the same level of importance with suitable criteria as compliance, financial, operational, and reputational risk, and the results and outcome should be monitored and managed. Some frameworks can be used to consider risk assessment and related best practices, such as NIST, PCI-DSS, etc. Shielding Your Vital Assets Due to the rapid digital transformation, new threats emerge, and threat landscapes continue to increase. Each organization needs to ensure that they are equipped to deal with such threats while maintaining the continuity of business flow. As much as technical knowledge helps, it is not sufficient to safeguard the organization’s assets. There is an overabundance of roles to be filled and technical skills to be learned daily as new threats emerge at a high rate. Maintaining a secure business is critical for all organizations. Walnut Security Services comprises different levels of professionals ranging from cyber security professionals, and application developers, to the marketing teams, each having a separate department for various specific tasks allocated to them. The cyber security teams handle different tasks, from offensive security like penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, secure source code review, etc., to even the blue team responsibilities like risk management, security operation management, and so on. The Security team in an organization consists of various levels depending on the organization's operating structure and environment. Digital transformation, Artificial Intelligence, cloud computing, and a sophisticated threat landscape are pushing everyone to re-evaluate the functions of each role on the security teams, from Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) to the last member in the department. Cyber security is a vast domain, so the Educa ng and empowering the clients and customers in such a way is a vital training method of Walnut Security Services. ‘‘ ‘‘ ‘‘ ‘ ‘

Cyber Security and Cyber Security products, hence, become of paramount importance for any business. “We understand Cyber Security products better. We understand business data and the technologies that manage, store and move that information for you and your clients,” he claims. And along with it, the threats to your data and business systems can cost thousands, even millions, of dollars. Though each company has the primary responsibility of its Cyber security exposure – the extent of extending access, firewall workarounds for vendors, and external and internal reaches, the frantic pace at which information ecosystems are evolving can be a challenge for even the leaders in the business domains. This is where CiELO Tech is the most valuable partner every enterprise can have. We Build an End-to-End Security Elaborating on the plethora of solutions they provide, Sanket says they include Enterprise Security Solutions: “We bring an integrated facilities management service, bring you enterprise security solutions targeted to amalgamate different aspects of your business.

In the digital bandwidth, every business remains vulnerable to cyber threats on the other end of the spectrum. Previously hidden within the dark web's underbelly, that spectrum has been surfacing with greater and stronger attacks. Every time a business entity's defences are weakened due to dealing with the rapidly evolving online world. That vulnerability becomes an opportunity for unscrupulous elements to exploit. This thin line is the difference between a company's success and failure. In these scenarios, not having to face such situations means being protected by an invincible defender of the calibre and might of Yield Interactive, whose perfectly expert and professionally adept team of stalwarts––led by an exemplary leader, and Founder, AMiT Thakrar––remains completely focused on your business's impregnable cybersecurity firewall, allowing you to focus on your business's growth, development, and success, indeed.

Yield Interactive has a dedicated set-up of cybersecurity team who works closely with clients and helps them create a secure ecosystem. AMiT proclaims, "We came into existence with… A Focused Approach Towards Client's Success” AMiT has worn various hats in his professional career. Being an engineer, he was always inquisitive about the business. And in his conquest, he came into the digital world, and since then, he has been mainly into client interactions, relationship development, business consulting, and sales. AMiT started Yield Interactive in 2012, intending to focus on building successful businesses. Since then, he has helped numerous clients turn their ideas into sustainable businesses and built their own startups in various verticals. Sharing his inspiration behind venturing into Cyber Security niche, AMiT says that Data, Info, Communication, Infrastructure, and Cyber security let your businesses operate with complete confidence and grow exponentially. Companies are very vulnerable without proper security measures, and it just takes a few lines of code to bring the business down. Thus Yield Interactive has added this important service vertical to educate, implement and maintain digital business security. "We educate each client and help them follow proper security practices," he insists. Stating USP's highlighting brand Yield Interactive as a leading name in Cyber Security Industry, AMiT says, "What stands us apart in the Cyber Security Industry is Completely Focused on Your Business' Cybersecurity and Success 32 | June, 2023
